[Verse 1]
Think that
Or imagine you are just
Just gliding
[Verse 2]
The hawk flies
In clear skies
Mirroring fire
Floating higher
Higher than any spire
[Verse 3]
Unconcerned or aware
Of hopeless
Forgotten prayers
[Verse 4]
He's one with the air
[Verse 5]
His golden skull
All full of null
And void
Except for the will of God
[Verse 6]
And not with crazed, incessant sounds
The noisy echoes that pull us to what makes us ill
[Verse 7]
Why do we go
After what drives us mad
You know?
[Verse 8]
We push and elbow
Grabbing what makes us sad
Like every ego fad
[Verse 9]
Quiet the mind
Find your flow aligned
Or stay blind
[Verse 10]
Nothing comes of
[Verse 11]
Making the same
Blunder a thousand times
That's just inane and lame
[Verse 12]
And how to go sane
Reading between the lines
When all the lines are your chains?
[Verse 13]
It isn't easy
[Verse 14]
You'll have to show some spine
Some spirit
[Verse 15]
Move from within
Bust out of what confines
Because
